Adult Swim Lessons
A recent study conducted by The American Red Cross found that half of the American population CANNOT swim. Florida Swim Company offers adult swimming lessons in the privacy of your home pool with lesson plans customized to your individual swimming goals.
Our certified and trained swim instructors have a vast array of experience with adult clients of all skill levels, including:
- Adults who are fearful of the water
- Adults who have no swimming experience
- Adults who need stroke refinement
- Adults who are training for a swim test
